All clean before the run, mine was about 1 month old (one of the 1st 06's). Still had the dealer plates on!http://elcova.com/groupee_files/photo_albums/4/4/2/4421012261/4521012261_D3FB93AB38345F3C7B6B8FA9A26FFA73.jpg

Stuck H1 (i didnt try it after he got swamped on the inside). I think he would have made it with more gas.

Not that day. We went back last weekend, but that thing was bottomless due to all of the rain. Actually, an H1 sent a fan blade through his radiator trying the H2 hole! It was amudfest, and many of the hill climbs were too slick for anyone to get up.

I special ordered the handles. They are nice for use as tie downs and for hoisting yourself up onto the roof to load canoes, etc. You can get them at the stealership.

Did you deal with Bill Scurry? He is the boss man for Hummers up there and a great guy. He is one of the few who actually knows evertything about what he sells, and wheels on a regular basis.

Very small world!

I've purchased from 3 dealers in Atlanta -- Marietta, Union City, and Lou Sobh. I think I liked Sobh the best. I was also impressed with the service manager. Although I've never gone back for service, he seemed to know his stuff as well. Service up here where I live sucks.

When I looked, I went to all three and Marietta didnt even know that the adventure pkg had air susp. ( I dont even think he knew it was offered). He just kept telling me about all the chrome and wheel pkgs they offered. I just left.

I feel fortunate that I have good service and sales people within 10 miles of my place after hearing horror stories on this forum!

They usually give me an H3 to go up to mall of GA or Bass pro while I'm in for oil changes and service. They hook it up!

I bought from Marietta back in '03. I think they knew more then but ran those guys off for some reason. I haven't been back since.

The dealer up here is really a Cadillac shop, so they don't know much more than how to change the oil. Anything more than that and you might as well try to do it yourself. I guess that's why I keep trading every time the oil needs to be changed... http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Speaking of Atlanta dealerships, Lou Sobh is definately the best if anybody around here is looking to buy. Phil in the service center is the greatest too.
I purchased my H1 about 2 years ago this April from there and it was one great experience. Wasn't Bill Scurry with Hummer of union city?

Steer clear of Carl Black in Roswell whatever you do, those guys are worse than Marietta Hummer!

For some reason, it seems like I've seen your truck at REI off I-85 before. Maybe not, but it looks like the one I saw.

Lou Sobh Hummer is probably the best of the Metro Atlanta dealerships. However, Union City Hummer isn't all that bad, either.

Yep, thats me! Small world. I live near there in brookhaven and often stop by REI.

I've only seen one other sand sut w/ body colored grille around here, and it doesent have a brush guard or black PC wheels.
